We offer centralized research support within the Institute ensuring state-of-the-art equipment and expertise.

They are independent of any research groups including Directors and are led by highly experienced and motivated Services & Facilities Leaders (SFLs). These services and facilities are also offered with recharging to the campus and to non-campus groups in order to maximize unused capacity and create cost efficiency for the Institute.
